How did you get interested in global issues?

I’ve always been interested in helping the poor, during my dissertation for my International Relations & Development degree. I have researched and learnt in depth about global issues and inequality around the world. It made me realise just how much I am responsible for poverty as others are too.

Why are you volunteering your time to serve the world’s poor?

I think there is massive inequality between regions around the world. This inequality is caused by greed and selfishness. Therefore, us who have benefitted from privileged lives due to circumstances we were born in, should strive to give the same back to those who did not have the same opportunity. Every child should have the right to education and to live their lives safe and securely. I have joined The Borgen Project to make that come true.

Any interesting tidbits to share?

I speak three languages.
